cumec

The cumec is a measure of flow rate.

One cumec is equivalent to 35.3147 cubic feet per second in the United States customary units.

One cumec is shorthand for cubic metre per second; also cms or m/s (ms).

The cumec is a slang term commonly used between workers in the measurement of water flow through natural streams and civil works, but rarely used in writing.

Data in units of cumec are used along the y-axis or vertical axis of the a flow hydrograph, which describes the time variation of discharge of a river (the mean velocity multiplied by cross-sectional area).
